Update: 2025-07-27
Description
Stanford economist Roger Noll joins Green and Gold FC to unpack how media power plays sidelined Australian soccer - and why promotion and relegation could be the sport’s revival key, even in a country with Australia’s unique challenges. From broadcast wars and collapsed leagues to the surprising benefits of yo-yo clubs, Noll explores how a real pyramid system boosts crowds, wages, and grassroots participation. Australia’s football future might depend on fixing the broken ladder to the top.
